VSee in Gabon Albert Schweitzer Hospital 100 Years Legacy

Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambaréné, Gabon needed to extend specialist care, training, and outreach from a remote jungle setting while celebrating its 100-year legacy. To overcome limited local specialist access and support village outreach (including remote ultrasound), the hospital used VSee’s telemedicine suitcase and satellite telehealth kit to enable virtual consultations and live streaming.

VSee deployed the telemedicine kit and satellite calls to connect Albert Schweitzer Hospital clinicians with Harvard specialists (for example, video consultations between Dr. Jean‑Daniel and Dr. Sarosh Rana), trained local staff on the equipment, supported remote ultrasound on village visits, and streamed the centennial symposium to students. VSee’s solution delivered real‑time face‑to‑face consultations, on‑site capacity building, and live remote learning—significantly improving specialist access and outreach for the hospital.
